Does anyone know if Tailscale works?

For those who use it, Orion by Kagi seems to launch but no window appears.

Dropbox not working for me

it is funny, all other apps seem to be working fine, except their own Finder. It displays funky when it is in column view

If you have access, please update the wiki (as well as posting here if you like). Ta.

Soundsource is working for me

Dropbox not working for me

Are you on the file provider update for Dropbox or did you opt out?

Interested to see if VMWare Fusion works.

Dropbox not working for me

Works fine for me. Using Dropbox v 226.3.5047

Interested to see if VMWare Fusion works.

VMWare Fusion: works OK for me, both Linux and Windows ARM. Although I do note it flickers a bit when I go to hot corners on macOS.

UTM VM: Works OK also; Windows ARM.
LuLu: Works OK.

Try LuLu anyway, better and free.

Would really love to know if DaVinci resolve 20 is working. Rekordbox (USB Export), and Dropbox (those on file provider update & those on not), OBS studio, Serato DJ

So the big thing is any Web App/Add To Dock App that was removed from the dock DOES NOT show up in the new Spotlight. They are still there but hidden in the folder (Macintosh HD - Users - Apps) but just a warning, they seem to have graphical issues when opened up. So I'm wondering if Apple plans to remove this feature, even though the option is still in Safari, but again if you remove from dock, without Launchpad, they DO NOT appear in the new Spotlight.

Please add to working:

  • Affinity Designer 2
  • Affinity Publisher 2
  • Affinity Photo 2
  • Proton Pass
  • Proton VPN
  • CleanMyMac

Edit: thank you kind Internet stranger! Any chance I could get you to add the ones I have in the iOS Wiki post?

Are you on the guess for Dropbox or did you opt out?

I never specifically opted in, will double check.

Works fine for me. Using Dropbox v 226.3.5047

Odd, I get an error upon login in "Dropbox unexpectedly quit" and asks me to restart it but just goes on a loop unless I choose the Close option

Working:

Nordvpn
Lulu
Photoshop 2025
Photo Mechanic
Transmit
Things
Lightroom CC

Sorry, dupe post.

Also to add

Working:

VLC
iStat Menus
Wireguard

Working:

Photoshop 2025

Lightroom Classic?

I see Parallels Desktop Pro is there. Are there any limitations or issues or does it just straight up work? Does anybody use Acronis True Image for backup and recovery on MacOS? I do, and I’m not super worried because I still use Time Machine which is my primary go to for local backups, but if anybody knows if that app is functional that would be nice to know before I take the plunge. I do like using it to have a backup in the cloud in case the worst happens on-premise here.

Please add

Sky Go working
CoconutBattery Plus

Sidenote - I miss legacy Launchpad. I like the Spotlight updates but I didn't want Launchpad gone.
